My DS is 3.
He has cups with different holes etc in the bottom plus a set of water whistles that play different notes with different levels of water in.

bath flutes if you can stand the noise. you fill them up to the right levels and you can play tunes with colour coded instruction cards.

ds already has a few toys but seems to get bored of them pretty quickly. The thing that has lasted the longest has been the bath crayons .. but even those need a break for a while!

old shampoo bottles, strange tubs with screw on lids, sieves and a playmobil fire boat with a motor. I keep milk bottle tops (red, blue + green) and other random yoghurt pots for filling/emptying. We have animals from the pound shop that I then dye the water blue and he has great fun imagining.

Plastic bowls + froggy soap (Kandoo) = baker's shop in our bath every night.
